Description

In the recent episode of the Building HVAC Science Podcast, hosts Eric Kaiser and Bill Spohn welcome Brynn Cooksey, the owner of Air Doctors Heating and Cooling. Brynn, who is deeply involved in the HVAC industry and building performance, shares his journey from growing up in a family-run HVAC business to becoming an influential figure in the industry. He recounts how his early exposure to the field through his parents' business and subsequent work with a utility company helped shape his career. Brynn emphasizes the importance of continuous learning and the significant impact organizations like the Refrigeration Service Engineers Society (RSES) have had on his professional development.

Brynn discusses his transition from a traditional HVAC service model to a more comprehensive home performance approach, influenced by his training in building science. He explains how his company now incorporates advanced diagnostic tools and techniques, such as blower door tests and combustion analysis, to offer more holistic and energy-efficient solutions to their customers. Brynn's dedication to building science and performance has led to his company rebranding and expanding their services to include shell modifications, insulation, and air sealing.

The podcast also highlights Brynn's efforts in workforce development through his training organization, HVACU, which addresses the shortage of skilled workers in both HVAC and building science. Brynn's involvement with educational initiatives like HeatSpring and his role in a new software venture, Pearl Edison, demonstrate his commitment to advancing industry standards and training the next generation of HVAC professionals. His emphasis on proper training, communication, and the use of advanced technology underscores his approach to business and his contributions to the industry.
